      Hmmm...

      Lacy, Williams, Jacobs, Chambers, Kirkland, Berto, Dirrell.....the list goes on and on......

      it's pretty clear where the most overrated fighters come from



      and you're just another dumb ***** who thinks he's smart hiding behind a Pac alt.

          First off some of those guys you listed weren't hype jobs(Dirrell was green and still beat Abraham and Froch, Williams a two division champion), Chambers and Jacobs lol @ you thinking anyone hyped them up.

          Truth is even if your statement was correct, you would still be wrong because America produces the most world class fighters, than any other nation in the world. The answer is the U.K and it's because majority of big fights for U.K based fighters the U.K fighters comes out on the short end. Think of all the big events, how many U.K fighters came out victorious? Calzaghe won his big events but that's about where it ends in recent years.

            Germany would certainly be up there as well. At least U.K. based fighters go out there and end up fighting the worlds best. German champions won't even think about it.

              The obvious answer people will say the USA, but IMO that isn't true. The USA produces far more fighters that "compete" (Key word) on a world class level than just about any other country. On a pure numbers game alone obviously we're gonna have a lot of guys taking losses. We don't have only 3 or 4 guys competing on a championship level like the UK for example. We have Mayweather and Ward. But then just for the guys that "compete" on a championship level other fighters like Bradley, Alexander, Berto, P-will, and the list goes on and on.

                The unquestionable status "golden age heavyweights" who just wailed on local billybobs and how infuriated people become when you compare modern fighters to them, just hilarious. People who complain about the talent gap in the modern heavies have obviously never examined the ascension of the "legends". Some of the guys Ali fought for titles would have trouble even being licensed nowadays,

                Currently
                , by far, the UK

                If you break the top 500 in your weight division and you're from the UK you're instantly ready for Pacqauaio/Klitschko and a serious p4p threat. It's like showing up at Warner Brothers wearing a yarmulke, you've already got the job.

                On one hand its cool that the UK has a strong boxing fanbase, but on the other hand it gets old watching the same old deja vu where some guy like haye or hatton loses and the UK fans are like "my god what an upset!" about their guy who was a 900:1 underdog and had no chance in hell at any point in time.

                I'm subscribed to a UK boxing magazine and they had an article titled "atta boy haye!" or something, applauding the brilliance of Haye faking an injury and pulling out of his original klitschko fight "because he wanted to win the WBA belt first so the fans could have unified champion". Their guys can do no wrong.

                I expect a really emotional spread on Haye battling through a deadly swollen toe and tropical rainstorm just to fly the union jack against all odds, then barely losing a corrupt decision after 12 rounds of bloody war to 7'8" 480 lbs wladimir.
                It's funny cuz it's true

                    Youre right Check I am German myself and I do not like them to me the best fighters in the world are from the US, Mexican , Puerto Rican , Argentina ,Phillipines , England (Froch,Kahn, also Haye ) . But not to forget Golovkin and Pirog from eastern Europe.
